Why does my preloader vanish before the page loads?

My preloader disappears before the content is fully loaded,so technically it's useless. How can I fix it also that I've tried various approaches without success? Also, the gif is incredibly enormous; how can I regulate and reduce the size of the gif? Thank you very much for all of your help.

#loader{
    position: fixed;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100vh;
    background: #ffffff url('https://media.giphy.com/media/xTkcEQACH24SMPxIQg/giphy.gif') no-repeat center;
    z-index: 999;
}

TLDR; Changed document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded" to window.addEventListener("load" because of their different behavior
